Water at Combahee Banks?

Anyone fish or been near by Otter Is out the Ashepoo River lately? Just wondering if water is still clear or has it muddied back up like it use to be before Matthew? Use to day shrimp there. Was gin clear in Nov last year during the season. Just trying to plan weather it is going to be a night time affair now.

Not sure on the asheepoo that far out, but further in the weed clusters are outrageous. I’ve heard DNR is spraying them.

“Why Bruce?”

I was out of S Edisto Sunday. Real dirty until about a mile offshore. Could not find any big menhaden to speak of.

All this rain we’ve had will surely keep it muddy.

PS. There are no shrimp there. They are all over in the broad river across from whale branch.:wink:

I just wonder has the mud settled back in the flats. It was as clear as the Harbor or Trenchards last Nov. I would have never thought a storm could flush all that mud out on a flat that big.
